To solve the problem, let's carefully follow each step.
1. Identify the Relevant Ingredients and Their Amounts:
According to the problem, we are interested in mangoes and blueberries. From the table, the recipe includes the following amounts for one batch:
- Mangoes: 3 cups
- Blueberries: 2 cups
2. Total Cups of Fruits in One Batch:
We need to find out how many cups of mangoes and blueberries are used in one batch together:
- Total cups per batch = Cups of Mangoes + Cups of Blueberries
- Total cups per batch = 3 cups (Mangoes) + 2 cups (Blueberries)
- Total cups per batch = 5 cups
3. Given Total Amount of Fruits:
The problem states that a total of 30 cups of mangoes and blueberries are used.
4. Calculate the Number of Batches:
To find out the number of batches made, we will divide the total cups used by the number of cups per batch:
- Number of batches [tex]\( = \frac{\text{Total cups used}}{\text{Total cups per batch}} \)[/tex]
- Number of batches [tex]\( = \frac{30 \text{ cups}}{5 \text{ cups/batch}} \)[/tex]
- Number of batches [tex]\( = 6.0 \)[/tex]
Therefore, the chef made 6 batches of the recipe.
Hence, the correct answer is:
6 batches
